Hi Everyone! We had a big celebration Yesterday in Estonia. Our country is now 99 years old. But this is not the reason why I'm writing Today. I am here to share simple card made with Sparkle N Sprinkle new Rory's Lucky Clover Stamp Set #837.

Image is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and it's colored with Promarkers. I used a pierced label die to cut it out. Stone is covered with Grey Mist Nuvo Jewel Drops. Matting layer is cut with scissors. I added Mediumtip Nuvo Glue Pen to the edges and covered the glue with DenimMicrofine Glitter.

Background paper is fromPansiesDigital bundle #826-833. I printed it out and die cut with Pierced Rectangle die. To add some more interest I stamped the flowers from PansiesStamp Set #826 with Versamarkink and heat embossed with White DetailEmbossing Powder. To bring gold to the background I sprinkled Super Thick Gold Embossing Powder to the paper and heated with heat tool from underneath.

Today I want to share a card I made with Sparkle N Sprinkle rubber and digi stamps: Pansies Stamp Set #826 and PansiesDigital bundle #826-833.

This Pansies Digital bundle is a must have. You'll get lots of beautiful images and you can choose to you want to color them your self or take an advantage of pre-colored images. I used pre-colored ones. Ignore the pore quality of the print - it's my printer, not the images.

I printed three copies of teacup pansies. One of them was die cut with pierced label die. Teacup was 'colored' with Versamarker pen and it was heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. Flowers was fussy cut and adhered with foam tape. I also added some sparkle to the flowers with Small tip Nuvo Glue Pen and Tyrian Glitter.

Sentiment is from Pansies and it's stamped with Versamark ink to the pattern paper from Pansies Digital bundle. Sentiment is heat embossed with Gold Detail Embossing Powder. To highlight some words I traced around them with White Gel Pen. To the top edge of the pattern paper I adhered a strip of 1/4" Double Sided Tear-ific Tape. Tape is covered with Margarita Microfine Glitter. Underneath it is attached a decorative border cut with die from Creative Expressions Trellis Edger set.

Front of the small step on my stepper card is covered with pansies strip from Pansies Digital bundle. Originally it has for flowers on it but I merged two of the strips together to make it longer. I printed two copies of it. From one I fussy cut all the flowers and adhered them on top of the second copy with foam tape. Just like with the teacup image I added sparkle to the flowers with Small tip Nuvo Glue Pen and Tyrian Glitter. Background and the centers of the pansies are colored with paintbrush and Mother of PearlNuvo Embellishment Mousse.

I also placed some Key Lime and Pale Perwinkle Nuvo Jewel Drops all over the card.

Image is printed out and colored with Promarkers. Background is inked with Distress Ink (Broken China). To the butterfly and flower centers I added Nuvo Glitter Drops (Honey Gold). Frame is made with stitched circles dies. While dies was in place I added glue with Medium tip Nuvo Glue Pen to the paper which was shown between the dies. Then I removed the dies, cleaned them and let the glue dry on the paper. Nuvo glue dries tacky. Tacky glue is covered with Nuvo Gilding Flakes (Sunkissed Copper). Frame is popped up with foam tape.

Sentiment is from same digital stamp set. I used stitched rectangle die to cut it out. I used Small tip Nuvo Glue Pen to cover part of the sentiment with glue. After glue was dried tacky I adheredNuvo Gilding Flakes(Sunkissed Copper) on top.

I found some leaves, made with Spellbinders Sprigs die, from my left-overs basket. They were perfect to add some interest and color to the card. Berries was made with Nuvo Glitter Drops (Honey Gold). Because the suffice was uneven I didn't add Glitter Drops directly to the sprigs. I added the drops to the backing of a Adhesive Sheet. After they were dry, I added Honey Gold Drops to their places.

The thing I love most on my card is its background. It feels as soft as it looks on the photo. I adhered a piece of Super Adhesive Sheet to the cardstock and used x-acto knife to cut different width diagonal strips to the protective layer. I peeled off protective layer from narrowest strips and covered them with Sunkissed Copper Gilding Flakes. Next I peeled off some more strips and adhered Cherry Sparkle Flock. Lastly I covered rest of the background with Cloud Nine Microfine Glitter.

For the matting layers I covered edges of cardstocks with Medium tip Nuvo Glue Pen. After glue was dried tacky I adheredSunkissed CopperGilding Flakes on top.

I used Digi Version of Luck of the Irish Enchantress - St. Patrick's Day stamp set as a main image. Cool thing about SNS digis is that beside the line art they also come a with a pre-colored image. This time I went an easier way and decided to use colored image. After I used a Spellbinders Oval die to cut it out, I inked the edges with Salty Ocean Distress ink. With Small tip Nuvo Glue Pen I added some Lemonade and Lady Luckglitters to the image.
You can't see it on the photo very well, but I added Mother of PearlNuvo Embellishment Moussewith small paint brush to the coins. In real life they shine really nicely.

... hidden sentiment. Sentiment is from Luck of the Irish Enchantress - St. Patrick's Day rubber set. It is stamped with Versamark ink and it is heat embossed with Irish Spring Embossing Powder. I love the size of this sentiment. I used Spellbinders die (Floral Ovals) to cut it out. On top of it I attached same die cut shape with a green brad. To make the brad match with my card, I covered it with Emerald City Nuvo Glitter Drops.

The clovers are from digital stamp set. I printed them in three different sizes. They are colored with Promarkers. With Small tip Nuvo Glue Pen I addedLady Luckglitter to them. Also a dot of Honey Gold Nuvo Glitter Drops was added to the center.

To finish off the card I used small scrap pieces of Sticker Paper and die cutted little butterflies with Cheery Lynn Designs Mini Dimensional Butterflies dies. They are covered with Lemonade Glitter. I also added small dots of Emerald City Nuvo Glitter Drops to their bodies.

The next stop on our blog hop is Jess. She has a real beauty to share with you.
